Venezuelan human rights organization Provea alleges the US Southern Command is operating within Venezuela with the knowledge and acquiescence of high-ranking government officials, specifically naming Executive Vice President Delcy Rodríguez. Provea has called on the Public Defender’s Office to explain its actions regarding human rights protections in light of these allegations. The organization also requested that Attorney General Larry Devoe investigate reported deaths occurring during related operations, adhering to the Minnesota Protocol for investigating extrajudicial executions. The allegations center around potential violations of sovereignty and human rights concerns stemming from the reported US military presence. Provea seeks transparency and accountability from Venezuelan authorities regarding this alleged collaboration. The report does not detail the nature or scope of the US Southern Command’s operations. Further investigation is demanded to clarify the extent of involvement and potential consequences.
